Like your men you couldn't make them stay
Twenty years gone maybe more
Fill your tin can with life, summer days tend to slip away
Most never care to find
Somewhere you lost the dream
Looking for that man to make her smile again
The face that many once adored
Sometimes you wonder where's the end
Mama watched your every move
Keep your memories tied with string
Daddy left some time ago
Pardon me, could you spare some change?
Street corner girl watch the crowd go by
Oh, you're still crying
But living on the streets ain't bad
But now you're all alone
Tried your best to prove them right
Sad people make you glad
Fading years pass too slow
He's the only one, could make you smile, smile
Big city bound gonna make your mark
All the ads and people say, beauty let's you get you way
Happiness seems so hard to win
Della Brown sees it all the time
Hard to choose, whiskey or a wife
Read your name in the lights
Where you goin' where you been?
Yeah she's been gone for awhile
Oh, you're still crying
